WE ACCEPT THE CHANGE.

If the Edmunds-T Tucker bill becomes a
law, the Governor of Utah will be mon
arch in his sphere. He will have an infiu-
ence and power not in harmony with Ameri-
can institutions. Capitalization will show
itself in conspicuous colors, and demagog-
ism and carpet -bagism will have full scope
to spread themselves and the people of the
Territory ause TO mourn.-Hormoh paper.
Better loyal American for monarch
than the English union-hating President
OF the Mormon Church. Although in
vested with unusual powers by the
Tucker bill, Governor West will be re-
stricted within certain bounds, which is
not the case with the present monarch of
Utah, whose word is the supreme moral
religious, political, common and statu-
tory law of his servile subjects through
out his dominion. Besides, the extra
ordinary authority vested in the Gov

MINING LAW.

A recent decision by a jury in the
United States Circuit Court in Colorado,
presided over by Judge Hallett, is of in
terest to miners. The case involved the
right to vein OF silver ore situate within
the limits Of patented placer claim.
Judge Hallett, in his charge to the jury,
explained the law applying to placer
claims to the effect that if it was ascer-
tained, after patent for a placer claim
had issued, that lode or vein OF
gold or silver existed within the patented
area, the title TO it would be good to the
person or persons to whom the patent
issued, and to his or their grantees.
But if it was known by the parties
claiming title and to whom the patent
issued that vein existed in the
placer ground, the parties would have no
legal right to the vein under the placer
patent. In the case before the court, it
appears that two placer miners who had
worked Il portion of the placer ground,
and who applied for the patent, agreed
with other parties-the plaintiffs in the
suit-whom it appeared knew of the ex-
istence OF the vein, to extend the bound
ries of their placer claim in the direction
OF and so as to include the ledge. The
judge instructed the jury that if from
the evidence they believed that the
placer miners who applied for and OBJ
tained the patent, did 80 at the request
OF the plaintiffs who furnished the money
for obtaining the patent and after.

tees was the act OF the purchasers
of the property, the plaintiffs in the case.
That the purchasers knowledge OF the
vein was presumed knowledge OF their
agents, the patentees, and the vein could
not be held under the placer patent
which covered it. The jury received
further instructions, that the plaintiffs
must recover upon the strength OF their
own title and not upon the weakness OF
that OF their adversaries. The defendants
only title arises from possession, and if
the plaintiffs received no title for that
portion OF the placer claim occupied by
the vein, they cannot complain OF the
defendants as trespassers because they,
the plaintiffs, have no standing upon
ground to which they have no title.
Whether the defendants therefore have
any title or are trespassers, is immaterial.

the continent must soon have solution.
In other words, that after shaking two
ferocious bulldogs together by the ears
till their fighting blood was up, they
would break away from their handlers
and fight it out to the bitter end. The
trio of venerable dog-fanciers on the
German side, with the French Bow
wowlanger on the other, must stop
shaking the fighting CANNES by the ears,
or they will not be restrained. Once in
close fight, the combat will be the most
desperate ever fought on the Continent.
Other fighting animals will join in the
fray and the revelator's vision OF death
on the white horse will be realized. AL
ready the war fever has invaded this
country and the Massachusetts, Legisla-

belligerent Congress that the fishermen

ever we may moralize, the fighting ele
ment seems to prevail in the makeup OF
the race. The trouble is, that the in
stigators OF a fight keep out OF the ranks
and out Of the reach of bullets.

GOING DOWN INTO THEIR BOOTS.

1t is related of Devonshire musician
who had an engagement as bass singer
in a country church choir, that the rector
OF his parish found him wading in the
ice-water OF a pond near the church one
cold morning in December The domi-
ME asked him why he thus exposed him
self. "Have you lost anything Robert ?"

The bass speakers and singers at SANITY
tabernacles and ward meetings are pre-
pairing to get down on the low notes at
the advent Of the Edmunds-Tucker bill.
The multitudinous editors OF both church
organs are splashing about in Salt Lake
to get good "hoose, " so that their voices
with their hearts will go down into their
boots during these February days. Quite

TIE proposition of Treasurer Jordan
for refunding the and 4la per cent
bonds is perhaps well enough, providing
the time for the redemption OF these
bonds is not made to extend beyond the

cents, which are the last bonds that will
have to be redeemed The ! per cents
fall due in 1907 and the sinking fund now
required by law will absorb them and
with them all OF the bonded debt by that
time. The people are opposed as they
should be, to perpetuating the National

from extinction, and therefore would OBJ

IT was suggested few days since by
the DEMOCRAT that the Mormon authori-

TuckerEdmunds bill, would probably
take time by the forelock, and like the
unjust steward make provision for them
selves when they were turned out Of
office. They have verified the prediction

IT is too late in the day to waste the
time OF intelligent people in attempting
to prove or disprove polygamy from the
Bible. The vicious practices OF four
thousand years ago among semi-barbar-
Gus tribes are condemned by the same
law-giver who declared that the old re-
taliatory provisions OF Jewish law had
become obsolete. The virtues OF ancient
patriarchs may well be emulated; the

MANY OF the Nevada papers are copy
ing approvingly the DEMOCRATS articles
on the election OF United States Senators,
and are urging their Legislature to mem
orialize Congress, asking that body to
propose an amendment to the Constitu-
ton providing for such election by a
direct vote OF the people. The Legsla-
ture OF the Keystone State was the first
to take such action. Let the battle-born
commonwealth fall next in line.

OFFICIAL PAPER.

Yaukton Herald: One benefit OF rail-
road outlet by way Of Duluth is that
the produce of Dakota soil can be lald
down in Buffalo at about one-haif the
present cost of transportation to Chica-
go. The Dakota farmer will save 20
cents bushel in the moving OF his
wheat to the seuboard. Duluth now
handles over 6,OOO,O00 bushels of wheat
per year more than Chicago, and is
making preparations for the accommo-
dation Of an increasing business. a
new line of swift steamers is being
built to carry grain to Buffalo. Yank-
ton is going to share the advantages of
this cheap transportation, which will
place this city us near the seaboard
market, so far as cost of shipment is
concerned, rs central Illinois or Indi-
ana. That means that the produce
raised here will bring in the local mar
ket the same prices that the Illinois or
Indiana farmer receives for the pro-
ducts of his $75 or 800 per acre land.
The enhancement of the Dakota farm
er's profits and the value of rail con-
nection with Duluth to this town and
section can be seen at glance. The
reduction on return freights will be in
proportion. Take the item of hard coal
for instance. and cheap fuel is a great
desideratum. Coal from Buffalo can
be laid down IN \ ankton and sold at a
profit for Se.75 per ton. The people on
the Mississippi river would rejoice to
get it at that price. These give an idea
of The benefits that the road from Du
luth will confer upon Yanktsl, And
the road is coming.
